Here`s your new drug
Shoot it in the left eye
Feel it on the right side
No it`s not love
Though it sets up shop behind your ribcage
Building blood clots and black holes
Like using an axe to pull
A sliver from your skin
And they say this is medicine
An overdose of oxygen
A severed head as sedative
To be at peace would be a sin
And surely un-American
I`m breaking
Here`s your new blood
Transfusion took us all night
Tell us that you`re all right
No it`s not love
Though feels like fire inside of your veins
Burning right beneath the wrist
Begging for a razor`s kiss
To free it from your skin
And they say this is medicine
An overdose of oxygen
A severed head as sedative
To be at peace would be a sin
And surely un-American
I`m breaking down
Lift the veil, it`s not medicine
And my heart fails, time and time again
